AvrStudio Borwn Out fuse settings

AvrStudio Borwn Out fuse settings

2005-08-29 by jdelgadillo66

Hello

I search on he Internet about information to correct fuse settigs for 
brown out detection, I do not know what is the difference between 2.7, 
4v or BODEN?, I already read AVR180 document but dont have information 
about AVRStudio brown-Out fuse settings.

Thanks for help

The datasheet for each microcontroller the settings.

To summarize, BODEN is an abbreviation for Brown Out Detector ENable.  
If brown-out detection is enabled, the other setting (BODLEVEL)
determines the actual voltage level below which the brown-out detector 
will be triggered, i.e. 2.7 volts or 4.0 volts.  Which of these levels 
you choose depends on your particular application.

   To elaborate just a bit, if you are using a 3.3 volt or anything
below a 5.0 volt Vcc, you will probably want to use the lower, 2.7 volt
BODLEVEL setting.  If you are using a 5V or higher Vcc, you will
probably want to use the 4 volt BODLEVEL setting.   It can be a little
more complicated than that for some specialized applications, but in
geeneral, these rules of thumb should suffice.
